Hot Water Beach House

This Cottage is a great spot for a couples or family getaway. It's the closest rental property at Hot Water Beach to the Hot Pools and beach, with outstanding views from the deck where you can see the whole length of Hot Water Beach.

It has a large fenced lawn which would be perfect for some summer cricket.

Hot Water Beach has been rated one of the top ten beaches in the world, and it is easy to understand why.
Soft, white sand; cafes; art gallery and, of course, the famous hot pools you dig for yourself.

For a couple of hours either side of low tide simply dig your toes in the sand until you find a hot spot where the naturally heated mineral water is flowing. Dig yourself a pool and relax in the beautiful surrounds while the cool seawater tops up your pool and prevents it from getting too hot.

Any time of the year is great to visit Hot Water Beach. In the summer the spectacular Pohutukawa blossom is in full bloom. In winter the smells and sounds of the native bush and wildlife add to your experience.

When the tide is low the pools are accessible. Kayaking, guided bush walks, glow worm trail (at night), horse trekking and numerous other activities are also available in the area.

Extras: Linen (Optional, NZ$15.00 per person); NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to: Clean the house and do the dishes before you leave;

Great beach scene
The house is simple but comfortable for a couple. The location is perfection if you want to walk across a local road for a morning swim/body surf, if you want to watch people gather with their shovels and start digging at low tide for hot water, if you want an exquisite 45 min walk along a nearly deserted cove. Great fun watching the day come and go.

Great location for the beach
The location is the only thing we found great about this property. Unfortunately the house is not maintained well, only half the lights worked, shower and toilet are small for an average person. The manager was approachable via messaging and responded quickly which was good. The neighbours made it an unpleasant stay for us, as every time we wanted to sit and relax on the deck, the dogs would start barking and not stop.

Perfect Bach for 2 people. Bed comfortable & house super clean. Good shower pressure. Lovely deck and table out front. Despite being across the road from public parking, very quiet. Appreciated the shovel to use on the beach!Only wish there was a dryer or a couple of extra towels to use.

Beach front
Its a Beautiful position on the beach front, with a view from the bedroom and deck out front. Its old school. The place is comfortable, suited what we wanted for a few night's away. With a well equipped Kitchen if you like to cook. The owner's communicated effectively. I'd welcome another opportunity to stay again. It's a popular location due to the geo thermal. The owner's provided good information about experiencing this. The Beach has wonderful sunrises.

This is a very clean and basic batch. Its position is simply fantastic, and would have been so much better if it hadn't rained the whole time.

Great little bach in the most amazing location imaginable. Simple, very clean, and perfectly located for the beach. The cafe/restaurants across the road and down the road were both good, and Moko art gallery 2 doors down is awesome. Will be recommending this place to family and friends

Holiday spoi;t by weather
Property great, manager (Tony) good to deal with and obliging BUT we got there just as Cyclone Hale hit the Coromandel and had 3 days when we couldn't go outside. Great views of the beach and the surf and swells rolling in but sadly not much swimming. We'll be back!

Clean and tidy kiwi bach with everything you need. Location is great. Maybe cut the tree back right next to the bedroom, it banged and crashed all night long against the roof and walls, with the heavy wind and bad weather. Otherwise all good.
